[edk2-devel] [PATCH 23/35] OvmfPkg/VirtioNetDxe: fix SignalEvent() call

The SignalEvent() boot service takes an EFI_EVENT, not an (EFI_EVENT*).
Fix the call in the notification function of
"EFI_SIMPLE_NETWORK_PROTOCOL.WaitForPacket".

This is an actual bug. The reason it's never been triggered is likely that
the "SNP.WaitForPacket" event is rarely waited for by applications -- edk2
itself has zero instances of that, for example.
